An Act amending the act of March 4, 1971 (P.L.6, No.2), known as the Tax Reform Code of 1971, in sales and use tax, further providing for exclusions from tax.

SB 484 amends Pennsylvania's 1971 Tax Reform Code to exclude qualifying solar energy systems from state sales and use tax. It exempts the retail sale or use of solar systems (including components) that meet national and industry standards for equipment, installation, and performance. The Department of Revenue will create regulations defining these standards, covering systems used for water heating, space heating, cooling, or other solar applications. This policy directly affects consumers and businesses purchasing compliant solar installations by reducing their upfront costs.
